In the early morning of autumn, there was a chill in the wind, but for some reason, Ao Dun suddenly woke up from his sleep in the greenhouse. He had a dream, in which he dreamed that he had been beheaded, and his head was like that. Hanging on the flagpole at the entrance of the town.
In the early years when he was not debuting, an expert once told him that when Ao Dun was thirty-nine years old, he would suffer a bloody disaster if he committed Tai Sui. If he escaped this disaster, he would be able to see red and gain in life. It is a coincidence that Ao Dun will be successful this year. Dun happens to be thirty-nine years old.
When Qingyang City was destroyed, Ao Dun originally thought that his life was at stake, but he never expected to escape the disaster without any danger and brought thousands of troops with him. The reason why Ao Dun huddled in Pingliang Town was because he wanted to live in peace. He spent the New Year peacefully and avoided this disaster in his life. Unexpectedly, a nightmare frightened him out of his mind.
This is an omen, and Ao Dun firmly believes in it. Although Ao Dun is now nearly forty years old, he is still brave and strong. This is due to his lack of sexual desire for women. An expert at that time once reminded: If you want to succeed, To escape a disaster, one must stay away from women, which is why Aoden has never had a woman until now.
Ao Dun got up and changed his clothes, called someone to serve him and put on his armor, and even hung his sword on his waist. After thinking about it, he picked up his purple gold sword in his hand, and then went down to discuss the matter under the protection of the soldiers. hall.
The generals were summoned to discuss matters. All the subordinate generals entered the hall while dozing off. Ao Dun saw the sleepy looks on everyone's faces, and couldn't help but feel angry. He stood up and slammed his sword on the ground, and then gave a sharp shout. : "Cheer up, everyone,"
All the generals were alert and alert, and each of them stood with their backs straight, showing an air of might.
Ao Dun thought for a while and felt uneasy, so he immediately ordered: "General Sun Qian and Fang Daxia are invited."
The messenger soldier ran away to deliver the message and came back soon.
"General, General Sun Qian and Fang Daxia left last night,"
"What?" Ao Dun was not only angry, but he was missing two helpers at the critical moment. How could this make him not angry?
All the generals didn't know what happened, and not only looked at each other face to face.
Ao Dun sighed and said: "Forget it, let's go." After saying that, he looked around at the generals in the hall and then said loudly: "Our army has expanded too quickly, and the soldiers and horses have not been drilled. From today onwards, the whole army will get up at 00:00 to train until At the beginning of noon, take a rest for an hour at noon, and continue practicing at noon until dark. If anyone neglects, military law will be enforced."
As soon as these words came out, the generals started talking like a pot. When Ao Dun saw this, he said angrily: "What are you arguing about?"
The General Manager of the Infantry Battalion is called Ha Shigang. He is a Semu man and a close confidant of Ao Dun. He is usually cautious and cautious, but he is quite scheming. When he saw Ao Dun getting angry, he not only stepped out of the queue and clasped his fists towards Ao Dun and said: "General Rong Rong" endowment,"
When Ao Dun saw Ha Shigang, his anger was reduced by three points. When he saw this, he hummed: "Speak,"
Ha Shigang then said slowly and calmly: "Most of the soldiers in the army are new recruits, and their backgrounds are quite mixed. If the control is too strict in a hurry, I'm afraid there will be trouble." Ha Shigang said this very cryptically, but his meaning was very clear: The new recruits are all wealthy people from the world, bachelors and poor men who have no money to eat, and there are also some local scoundrels. If these people are controlled by military law, half of them will escape in less than three days.
Hearing this, Ao Dun not only said angrily again: "Why don't we wait until the Ming army arrives before we practice?" Ha Shi was immediately speechless after being robbed. Ao Dun looked at the generals and said sternly: "The Ming army has already reached the door of his house. , how long are you going to allow your soldiers to be dissolute?" All the generals were obedient, and no one dared to breathe a sigh of relief.
Ao Dun was walking back and forth in the hall, and suddenly he was startled as something sounded, and he immediately ordered: "Ha Shigang,"
"My subordinate is here," Ha Shigang hurriedly stepped forward to obey the order.
Ao Dun thought for a moment and then said: "From today on, your infantry battalion will not only patrol Pingliang Town, but also the thirty miles outside the town will be under your control. You must patrol day and night without any mistakes."
Ha Shigang immediately clasped his fists and said, "I will obey the general's order."
Ao Dun snorted, then waved his hand and said: "Go down, and immediately gather all the troops to patrol Rao Town."
Ha Shigang once again cupped his hands and said, "My subordinates resign."
As soon as Ha Shi left the hall, he couldn't help but complain in his heart. The infantry battalion of 2,000 people patrolled Pingliang Town day and night. Even so, they could only divide the 2,000 people into three teams, with 600 people in each team patrolling for four hours. He led two Hundreds of people were dispatched, and the plan was decided. Ha Shigang went straight back to the infantry camp. First, he found several of his capable subordinates and gave them orders one by one. To show fairness, Ha Shigang volunteered to be on duty in the first shift. .
Riding on the horse, Ha Shigang couldn't help but smile bitterly. Except for a few birds chirping this morning, there was no one to be seen, but what kind of patrol was he doing?
This Ha Shi must have just had his brain opened up. He had just finished thinking here when a horse came towards him. The man on the horse was wearing a helmet and armor and holding an iron gun. In addition, the horse was very red. Under his crotch, the Qijun was very handsome. At a glance, it was really... As majestic as a god descending to earth.
Ha Shigang had already seen the person coming, but he couldn't see clearly even though the morning fog had not cleared. When he walked in with his two hundred soldiers, he was so frightened that he almost wet his crotch. "It's the Ming army," Ha Shigang shouted. He immediately turned his horse to run away, but then realized something was wrong. He turned around and saw that he was the only one coming, and there were no other generals.
Thinking of this, Ha Shi just turned his horse's head back, reached out and took out the broadsword from the saddle hook.
"Come on, please give me your name," Ha Shigang shouted arrogantly. Two hundred soldiers behind him were holding the battle, but they were still afraid of him. Ha Shigang was also quite conceited about his martial arts. He usually bet with the soldiers in the camp. In a fight, even three or five people can't get close. If you see a Ming army at this moment, run away to avoid being looked down upon by your subordinates.
"Zhang Dakui, the vanguard general of the expedition," Dakui stood up with his spear raised, without any emotion in his words. The morning breeze in autumn was originally cold, but when he heard Dakui's words, Ha Shigang not only felt a chill running down his spine.
I have heard of Zhang Dakui's name Ha Shigang. He is like a god of war. His deeds of retreating a hundred thousand soldiers and exploring Qingyang City alone are known to everyone among the Yuan soldiers. , moreover, when Ao Dun hosted a banquet for Sun Qian and Fang Jiutian a few days ago, Fang Jiutian also exaggerated Dakui's life experience.
Even the Poison King Fang Daxia in the Miao Territory was afraid of people with three points, so how could he be so incompetent? Who would have thought that when Ha Shi just heard that Da Kui announced his family status, he actually laughed and said: "Zhang Da Kui, the vanguard general of the conquest, you are the only one." Who do you want to conquer?" Ha Shigang smiled wildly. It was not that he was not afraid of Dakui, but that he simply did not believe that the person in front of him was Zhang Dakui.
How can there be such a coincidence in the world? I just heard about Zhang Dakui's name the night before and saw him today.
Da Kui smiled but didn't answer, and Ha Shigang said with a cold smile: "Whether you are true or not, we will wait until I capture you." As soon as he finished speaking, he rode his horse and raised his sword and went straight to Da Kui to kill him.
The distance between the two was only twenty battles. Ha Shi just rushed to ten feet away, but Dakui remained motionless. Just as Ha Shi just advanced five feet further, Dakui moved. Da Kui shook his right hand and hit a stone. The pebbles were carried away by the strong wind, heading straight for the front legs of Ha Shigang's mount.
Ha Shigang was charging at full speed at this moment. The distance of more than ten feet was just enough for the horse to reach its maximum speed. Who would have thought that he could approach Dakui only five feet away, but the horse neighed and lost its front hoof. .
"Plop!" Ha Shigang was so strong that he gnawed shit and fell hard, and his whole face fell to the ground. Because the punch was too strong, Ha Shigang rolled on the ground twice before he got up. He felt his face was burning. The pain was heartbreaking, and he knew that his appearance was disfigured. Although he fell down, Ha Shigang was very clear-headed, but when he was about to stand up, he felt his shoulders sink. He turned around to look, but it was Dakui holding a gun with one hand. on his shoulder.
"You are so capable that you should fight with me." Da Kui smiled slightly and then continued: "I won't kill you. Go and ask Ao Dun for someone decent. If you can't find someone who can fight with me, call Ao Dun." Just come here in person, let's go,"
Ha Shi just gritted his teeth, knowing that he was in trouble today, but his horse had been trained for a long time, so it should not have lost its front hoof. From this, it can be seen that it must be Zhang Dakui's fault, but his skills are not as good as others, so what can he do? .
Ha Shi just endured the severe pain all over his body and wanted to stand up slowly, but suddenly there was severe pain in his right leg. Ha Shi just snorted and fell to the ground again. Da Kui laughed and said: "I didn't expect you to be so helpless. He can't even stand firmly," he said, shouting to a group of Yuan soldiers in the distance: "Two of you, please carry your general back."
The general defeated the formation with one move, and the remaining Yuan soldiers had no intention of fighting again. When they heard Dakui said not to kill Ha Shigang, but also asked them to go over and save people, more than ten people who were usually friends with Ha Shigang rushed up. Some people came forward to raise their arms, others raised their legs. Some people went to lead Ha Shigang's horse and picked up the sword that Ha Shigang had discarded.
Ha Shigang was carried back to the general's mansion in the town by the soldiers and carried into the meeting hall. At this moment, Ao Dun was arranging the training of soldiers and horses to the generals. When he suddenly saw Ha Shigang being carried into the hall, he was not only stunned. , rushed forward to take a closer look, and saw that half of Ha Shigang's face was covered in blood and flesh, and he could no longer tell where his nose was and where his mouth was.
Ao Dun was so angry that he grabbed a Yuan soldier who came with him by the collar and asked, "What on earth is going on?"
When the Yuan Bing saw Ao Dun getting angry, he immediately stammered: "Big...big...general...general, there are Ming troops outside the town,"
"What," Ao Dun was filled with anger. When he heard that there were Ming troops outside the town, his anger immediately disappeared. He calmed down and slowly let go of his hand. Then he went to see Ha Shigang. He was so injured that he could still talk. He was helpless. Next, Ao Dun asked again: "What exactly happened and how the battle was going? Tell me in detail."
The soldier gained courage and then reported back: "There is only one person outside the town, wearing a Ming army general's armor, riding a tall horse, and he calls himself 'Zhang Dakui'." When he heard the word 'Zhang Dakui', Ao Dun Not only did he yell: "What happens next, tell me quickly,"
The soldier swallowed his saliva and then said: "General Ha Shigang and Zhang Dakui did not fight. General Ha Shigang was knocked down by his horse. Zhang Dakui said that General Ha Shigang was unhelpful and asked me to wait until I reported back to the general so that I could fight him in a different position." war,"
